The last number of the Railway Age

The last number of the Railway Age
says: During the last few months the
work of railway building has been 60
ing on in the United States at rate
never before equaled. The great pros
perity of the country and tendency to
migrate into new and undeveloped re-
gions have encouraged great railway
companies TO push forward an enor-
nous amount Of new mileage in order
to anticipate and keep up with similar
enterprise on the part of their COMPETE
tors. From January l to Nov. p
roads have laid total of 9,40S miles
of track. More track has been laid so
far this year than in the year 1886 and
exceeds the records of all other years
in the history of this or any other
country. The greatest activity has
been exhibited in broad belt west of
the Missouri river, stretching from Da-
kota and Montana south 10 the gulf
Kansas continues, as last year. far in
the lead, showing already an addition
of at least 1850 miles since the year
began. Nebraska follows next with n
report of S67 miles, Texas with e3l
miles, Colorado with 7l8 miles, and
Dakota with $50 miles. These four
states and one territory already have
added 4,79S miles of new railways, or
more than half the total thus far re-
ported for the entire country.

1t is said that the lady clerks who are
engaged by the labor bureau in collect
ing data on the condition of the work
inc women in the manufacturing dis
tricts of New England, have to be re-
strained by the chiefs of their respective
departments forfear they will overwork
themselves. These ladies are so en-
thusiastic in their labors that they work
day and night, and would d. so for
seven days in the week if they were
notrestrained by the head of the bureau.
1t was necessary to intimate to them
that they would be able to work better
if they allowed themselves sufficient
rest to keep them in good health, than
if they were to work themselves sick,
as it was imminent they would. Their
report, together with the statistics col
lected from other portions of the coun-
try, will form the greater part of the
next years report of the bureau.

Two striking instances of providential
iecompense have lately come to view.
The edict of Nantes in 1898 gave relig-
ious liberty to French Protestants. The
revocation of the edict in 1856 was
followed by an immense eillux of
Huguenots into other countries. a
French statesman has lately figured out
that not less than eighty eminent staff
officers in the German army which
humbled Franch in 1870 were descend
ants from those exiled Protestants. OF
another sort is this: Miss L. G.. Fleming,
a colored lady, now missionary from
this country to the Congo people, is the
granddaughter of an African who with
his family was stolen from near the
mouth of the Congo river and made a
victim of American slavery.

claim that when completed the new
system will be able to compete with
Gould's systems and give good service
at equitable rates. The men backing
the system are wealthy and fully able
to carry out their plans. AS yet the
project is not sufficiently far advanced
to justify its promoters to make public
